USA 2, Haiti 2: A look back
It was a game that didn't have much meaning from a results standpoint (at least not for the Americans), but the U.S. national team's 2-2 tie vs. Haiti on Saturday certainly still had plenty of value for the United States.
Along with giving head coach Bob Bradley a chance to see every player he hadn't seen in the team's first two matches, it also helped provide the U.S. team with a good tough test heading into the Gold Cup quarterfinals.
Stuart Holden stepped up yet again and showed why he has to be considered one of the U.S. pool's most promising attacking prospects. Unfortunately for the USA, Holden's performance was one of only a few true bright spots on Saturday.
